Personality - Choosing Your Wedding Photographer (Part 4)
Today is Part 4 of 4 in our Choosing Your Wedding Photographer Series.
So this week we are taking about the last of the big four things that will help you choose your wedding photography. Honestly, in the free guide (you can download it here) this is listed as the second one but I chose to do it last here for one simple reason...it's my favourite!
Take a read below and join me tonight at 4:30pm on live video to learn more and have your questions about finding a photographer with the right personality for you answered!
All your wedding vendors are important to the success of your big day. They can make or break your entire experience leading up to and on your wedding day based on their skill, professionalism, and how well you get along with them. With that said, there are few vendors you will spend as much time with on the wedding day (as well as leading up to, and after your wedding day) than your photographer.
Here’s an example.
Your DJ
Initial Consultation ‐ 30 to 60 mins
Correspondence 30 mins
Hours on the wedding day ‐ 6 hours
Total time ‐ 7.5 hours
Compare that with the average time spent with my brides & grooms (doesn’t include editing etc ‐ just time spent with or talking to my clients)
Rebecca Nash Photography
Initial Consult ‐ 60 mins
Engagement Session Consult ‐ 60 mins
Engagement Session ‐ 90 mins
Engagement Reveal Session ‐ 90 mins
Engagement Product Delivery ‐ 30 mins
Wedding Timeline Meeting ‐ 60mins
Wedding Day ‐ 8 to 10 hours
Wedding Reveal Session ‐ 2 hours
Album Design & Revisions ‐ 30 to 60 mins
Wedding Product Delivery ‐ 30 mins
Correspondence (calls, emails etc throughout entire process) ‐ 5+ hours
Total Time ‐ 22.5 hours or more
While photographers processes (and therefore time spent with clients) can vary greatly, your photographer is likely to be the vendor your spend the most time with throughout your wedding. It is so important to make sure you have chosen someone who you feel comfortable with and who you feel will add to your wedding day experience through their presence.
